Their fifth wicket partnership of 169 runs pulled England from 62-4 to 231-5 on the fourth day of the test. This partnership has received wide spread praise in the UK with Michael Vaughan stating that “the partnership should be replayed over and over again to the England team ” and Jonathan Agnew echoing thispraise.

Stokes also bowled well during India’s second innings, picking up the wickets of KL Rahul and Cheteshwar Pujara. Speaking of Ben Stokes’ bowling, Rahane added, “We all know Stokes, he plays with me in the IPL, so that helps I guess. It’s about taking one ball at a time and giving your best.
